The opportunity

Perplexity is looking for engineers who want to put planet-scale search in the hands of every developer and every agent. The API Platform is one of the fastest-growing surfaces of the company, and the team behind it owns all of it.

What they're looking for

  • Experience with designing and operating distributed, high-load systems.
  • Build with frontier models and tools: open source and closed source - every day, and you can walk us through your agentic workflow in detail.
  • High autonomy and agency, paired with real product sense: you think about developers and customers, what an API user wants next, and where the frontier is heading..
  • Working fluency with the core cloud infrastructure stack: a major cloud provider, Kubernetes, CI/CD.
